there is no parameter "Number of sections", sections can be added and removed as necessary

section can also be added inside another section

each section (regardless of its nesting level) can be shown expanded or collapsed. Teacher can change it in edit mode.

If section is displayed collapsed, it's name is displayed as a link to the separate page and on this separate page the link "Back to ... " is displayed

If teacher hides a section all nested sections and activities become hidden as well.

Please note that if section has both activities and subsections activities are displayed first.

On the attached screenshots the section "Assignments" has Label resource and two subsections - "New assignments" (displayed expanded) and "Old assignments" (collapsed). Note how course navigation looks like in this case.

Hi Marina, we just released a course using the flexible sections format. Thank you for providing this. It is great! I checked with the developers of the Moodle app, and thay say that they will not support this since it is a "non standard" format, however - developers can add mobile support as another plugin: through https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Moodle_Mobile_Remote_add-ons
Have you considered this? Having app support would be awesome! /Best Henrik

Hello,
A number of people here have mentioned that they would like to see the Flexible sections format work on the Moodle Mobile app. It seems that the development team is considering this and have opened an issue in the tracker (MOBILE-1551). You might want to cast a vote to help ensure that support for course formats remains a priority.

Hello, I have a problem, when trying to add subsection, it adds section instead, and when I try to move it, I get white screen with message in the corner: Error in sections hierarchy. Can someone please help?

I would like to use the flexible format together with the Adaptable theme. While it works, the visual (css) does not look as good as the topic format (or the flexible format over boost theme).
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what should I modify to have "the same effect"?
The biggest issue is that sections and subsections are not been displayed separetedly, with bound boxes, white spaces or any enclosures.
